James Earl Jones, The Voice Of Darth Vader & Mufasa, Has Died
It’s a sad day for pop culture fans, as one of the most prolific actors/voice actors have left our world.
American actor James Earl Jones has passed away. He was 93. He died on 9 September surrounded by his family, according to his agent Barry McPherson.
James Earl Jones is iconic in pop culture, being the voice of Darth Vader in the Star Wars series and Mufasa in The Lion King. His voice still brings chills to many people’s spines as it’s deep, booming, and memorable, with loads of gravitas in his performance alone.
He also starred in a good number of films, playing iconic roles in Coming To America and Conan The Barbarian. He also won three Tony awards, two Emmys, and a Grammy, as well as an honorary Oscar in 2011 for lifetime achievement. Back in 1971, he was the second Black man nominated for an Academy Award for best actor, the first being Sidney Poitier.
Of course, he is also a prolific intro voice in CNN back when people actually watched it. And also the first celebrity guest on Sesame Street back in 1978.
